Default rear speaker box type help for C3 vert

Need some help, I have Flowmaster 40 and conv so all I'm looking for is basic sound loud enough to hear at hiway speeds with top down. I have Infinity coaxial 100W RMS in front and will have 75Wx4 RMS RF amp so for rear (no sub) should I:

1. buy 6x9 or 6x9.5 and make sealed or ported box?

2. buy pre made 8" woof and horn tweet boxes by Kicker, MTX etc..?

3. or other suggestions. THX

If you search the C3 archives you'll find plans for 6x9 box :thumbs:

I am not sure if the 69 has compartments like the 78 (I have 3) behind the seats. I am going to make a custom fiberglass box to hold a 10" sub. If I just use the jack compartment, I should have just about .5cu, once I extend it into the middle compartment a bit, I should be able to get it up a bit. (Not sure of the final volume).

That is just another idea. :-)

Doah. I guess I should really read the post before I reply :-) I am using the forum 6x9 speaker mount instructions for my rear speakers. I think those are the best I have seen.
